À propos du livre
Antonio Tarabocchia's lifetime is almost unbelievable. Raised on a tiny island in the Adriatic Sea during World War 2, he experienced the real danger of being shot or killed in his daily travels. The Virgin Mary appeared vividly in one of his dreams to deliver startling news about the war at that time. Risking bad weather and the Yugoslav authorities who would kill on sight, he escaped to Italy and freedom, yet was thrown in jail upon arrival, suspected of being a spy. Lying sick in Italy, merely skin and bones left, he would never get married; never have a family; never get a job—so he thought. But—miracles happen! He emigrated to Canada and started a thriving television business. Many people in Thunder Bay knew him at Tony's TV & Stereo—he'd become a true "Color TV Man." Selling TVs like hotcakes, he flew all over the world—to Japan, Hawaii and Spain. And, he succeeded in business while raising a very large family of over forty. Color TV Man is an entertaining and inspiring true story of courage, faith and determination—one man's struggle to achieve a better life for himself and his family. Beautifully illustrated with more than 200 nostalgic B&W and color photographs, plus an informative map showing Italy and surrounding region, Color TV Man is sure to entertain all who peruse it's 116 colorful pages.
